Your support makes a huge difference

Contributed by: Julia Fontera on 4/29/2008

"Your Support really makes a difference. Helping girls achieve their dreams is a feeling like no other."

-Head Coach Darrow Fontera Colorado Premier - Heat girls basketball club

Green Mountain's Adaugo Osuala battles for possession of the ball with Dakota Ridge's Tira Callaway, right, on Friday night at Green Mountain High School in Lakewood.

Lakewood game....But Osuala led the Rams back. The sophomore scored 14 of her career-best 32 points in the fourth quarter. She hit a three-pointer with 30 seconds left that put Green Mountain ahead 56-55 and finished the comeback with a layup with 12 seconds left after Lakewood's Carly Cator missed the second of two free-throws. Osuala also had an astonishing 13 steals, many of which she finished with layups to pump life into the Green Mountain comeback. "It was tough," she said. "Our coach told us we'd have to fight for it, and we did.

I am a player on the Colorado Premier - Heat girls basketball team summer 2008. My name is Aduago Osuala. I am a sophomore at Green Mountain High School and I play Varsity. The Colorado Premier - Heat girl's basketball team helps girls achieve their dreams of playing High School Varsity Basketball and potentially in College. My goal is to play college basketball on a Basketball scholarship. I have played on this team since 6 th grade and my coach continues to bring out the best in me. Our team is playing in 3 College Viewing tournaments in July 2008. End of the Oregon Trail (Portland), River City Classic in Memphis and Midsummer Night's Madness in San Diego. We are also playing in 4 local Colorado tournaments.

I am trying to raise money so I can participate this summer. The cost this year is $3000.00 and that includes all travel and accommodations. We are doing several fundraisers. In addition we are asking for donations to help raise money. Junior Athletics of the Midwest is a nonprofit organization with a 501c3 tax ID number will be provided so your donation is tax deductable. If you are interested in helping make checks payable to Junior Athletics of the Midwest or JAM and mail to 7145 S. Apache St, Littleton, CO 80120. Please reference me, Adaugo Osuala. Without help from generous people like you I would not be able to play.

Thank you, Adaugo Osuala
